As the nation continues to address alleged instances of racially based police violence and other incidents of institutional racism, the American Bar Association has made the elimination of bias in the justice system a top priority. “Hidden Injustice: Bias on the Bench” is the first tool of its kind to raise awareness and provide practical tips for America’s judges on the damage caused by implicit bias and the necessary steps to combat it.
Featuring the nation’s top judges, law professors and experts, the 10-minute training video is the centerpiece of an upcoming toolkit designed by the ABA’s recently formed Diversity and Inclusion 360 Commission to help create a fair system of justice for all Americans.
